Body Composition = the amount of lean body mass compared to the amount of body fat.
What are 3 examples of "lean body mass"?
1. Bone
2. Muscle
3. Organs
4. Body Fluids
What are 3 of the benefits of fat in your body?
1. Acts as an insulator, helping the body adapt to heat and cold
2. Acts as a shock absorber, helping to protect internal organs and bones from injury.
3. Helps the body use vitamins effectively
4. Acts as storage energy when the body needs energy
5. Maintains healthy skin and hair
6. Regulates levels of cholesterol in the blood.
How do you think a person's body composition is tested?
~ Body Composition is measured by calculating a person’s Body Mass Index (or BMI). Elementary students’ body composition is constantly changing due to rapid growth spurts, so children have a different BMI calculation table than adults. Calculating your BMI is generally something your doctor will do at a wellness check that you might not even be aware of to make sure that your body is healthy.

Name another ball joint in your body. Hip
Can you move it through its full range of motion similar to your shoulder joint? No
In full sentences explain WHY it can or cannot move the same way. Your hip can't go in a complete circle above my head like my shoulder can, that is why the full range of motion isn't similar to my shoulder joint.
What is the definition of FLEXIBILITY?
Being able to stretch a muscle or joint to a certain angle is flexibility.
Why is flexibility or stretching important? What are the benefits of doing these types of exercises?
If you don't stretch you could hurt yourself, but it you do stretch you can stretch farther.
